Re: Riddles!

I got one. You may need to draw this down:

There is 4 perfect circle flowerbeds meeting each other at the edge as to make a con-caved box. The Radius of the circle is 20m. Work out the area of the con-caved square and one of the circles without using pi or 3.1 or 3.

1.I'm lighter than a feather, yet most men can't hold me for very long, what am I?2.Four men walk into a bar, why is this weird?3.What question can someone ask all day, get different answers each time, yet they are all correct?4.Nearly bright as the sun. Sometimes dark as space. Like a pearl on black velvet, with diamonds twinkling in my case. What am I?5.What is so fragile it breaks when you say it?6.(this one is famous) in the morning i walk on four legs, in the afternoon i walk on two legs, and in the evening i walk on three legs, what am I?7.Voiceless cry, wingless flutter, toothless bite, mouthless mutter. What am I?

1. what can you put in a plastic bucket t make it lighter? and it's not a gas

i heard this one as a joke, i think it was a torch

#5 is silence.

Here's mine:Somebody claims he can build a hidroelectric station that works with 100% efficiency. If we assume this is possible, is it good or not? Why?

I'll attempt to answer all of these.1. breath. fairly self explanatory2. the last three should have ducked under the bar after the first one walked into it.3. what time is it? again, obvious.4. the moon. because it can be dark(new moon) or bright(whole moon) and is surrounded by stars.5. silence. when you say it, the silence is broken.6. (yes it is) humans. crawling in the morning(infancy) two legs in the afternoon(adulthood) and with a cane in the evening(old age)7. I actually have no Idea.

...sais pas, although my best guess is a computer, by the twisted logic that computer operates only two types of input, 0s and 1s.

Here's something not too difficult- A hiker follows the same route up a mountain every morning. One day, he sees a cabin that was not there the day before. He does not enter it or look inside, but he knows upon sight of it that everyone inside is dead. Why is that?

Is it because It is upside down down the mountain, as If by tornado or something?

Re: Riddles!

ok heres a riddle I remember from a year ago : You're in a mansion and the power's out. You see a green door and a red door. Pick one. Now you see a purple door and a orange door. Pick one. Now you see a door with a golden handle and a door with a silver handle. Pick one. You finally come to some signs on three doors. One says "Death from drowning," another says "Death from machine guns," and the last one says "Death from electric chair." Then you see a big sign off to the side that says "Or stay in the mansion and starve to death." What do you choose and still live?

electric chair. the power's out, so unless I'll be bludgeoned to death by the chair, I won't die.
